+Its the Dragon Ride at the weekend and I am almost over the flu that knocked me out for the last week or so.  I had some [trouble with a heart rate monitor](#cycling), but managed to resolve the issue.

+## Cycling
+
+Last week I forgot to connect my Coospo heart rate monitor to my chest strap until a few minutes down the road.
+
+As I use my heart rate and cadence as the primary data for training, I decided to go back an get the monitor.
+
+It seems that once a ride starts on the Wahoo cycle computer, then a sensor added will not send data.  I have also had this experience on the Garmin cycling computer.
+
+I tried unpairing the sensor from the Wahoo computer and then restarting the Wahoo.
+
+I was able to pair the sensor again, but no data was forthcoming.
+
+In the end I did a factory reset on the Wahoo and added the Heart Rate sensor again.  This still did not work, however, I noticed something interesting.
+
+With the Coospo heart rate monitor active (connected to my chest strap wrapped around my chest), when I add a sensor and wait for 15-20 seconds then two different heart rate sensors show.
+
+This could be because the Coospo heart rate sensor sends both bluetooth and Ant+ signals simultaneously.
+
+I believe its the first sensor which appears that isnt transmitting data, but the second one did.  If not sure, then connect both sensors and unpair the one that doesn't send data.

+Thank you.
